What is the easiest way to remove wallpaper?

• <div><p>The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.</p></div>

Q: Does peel-and-stick backsplash stay on?

• <div><p>As long as the surface you&rsquo;re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.</p></div>

Q: How do I reduce the risk of moldy wallpaper?

• <div><p>Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. </p></div>

Q: What are the pros and cons of putting up wallpaper?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-wallpaper-vs-paint.htm">The pros of wallpaper</a> include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it&rsquo;s difficult to remove, it&rsquo;s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it&rsquo;s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.</p></div>

Q: Does peel-and-stick wallpaper hold up in a bathroom?

• <div><p>Many types of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-apply-peel-and-stick-wallpaper.htm">peel-and-stick wallpaper</a> can hold up to environments with some level of moisture, such as bathrooms&mdash;especially peel-and-stick wallpapers made of vinyl or polyester. However, if you&rsquo;re considering wallpapering a bathroom that sees a <i>lot</i> of moisture, like a kids&rsquo; bathroom or a full bathroom with a steamy shower and inadequate ventilation, even the highest quality wallpapers will peel.</p></div>
